Our family of two finally grew to three--then to four! We pray God will allow us to continue to grow! Get updates on the happenings of our family here. It probably won't be too exciting--a lot of blah, blah, blah--but I will include pictures and video clips if that will bring you back. Oh, and we'll toss in some free stuff too!

RFW:The Secret

Resolution for Women: The Secret

A woman of contentment is aware of her needs and what God has already supplied to meet them. Begin your journey to contentment by making a list. Label one side “My Needs.” Label the other “God’s Provision.” Then match up your needs with the way God is currently meeting them. Place your list in a handy place for the times you are tempted to lean toward dissatisfaction.

My Needs -->God’s ProvisionTo have a career that matters-->He led me back to school to become a teacherTo have a support system -->Introduction of new friends and reconnect with old friendsTo be loved and supported -->Given me a wonderful husband and familyTo be challenged spiritually -->Re-kindled a fire in my soul to know God betterTo have financial security--> Provided me and Kyle with stable working environments

What might God be trying to grow in your character or cement in your relationship with Him by keeping you separated from some of the things you want but don’t yet have?

I believe that God may be trying to grow my faith and dependency on Him. I believe He also wants to teach me that He is in control, and His ways are better than my ways. Whatever He is denying me, He will use it to bring glory and honor to His name. Because, He is a good God, even when He is saying “no” or “not now.*********************************************************************

Please stay tuned. I have a review/giveaway that I will post this weekend from Daysprings!

There is a song we hear at church sometimes that sayse"You never pray a prayer, your Father will not answerHe can't ignore His child's earnest requestWhile you're waiting and believingFor what you thought was bestTrust God if He says no….. You're still BlessedThere must be a greater yes" That's what I was reminded of when I did this lesson. You and Thomas have to go see the movie Courageous!!! Its so awesome!

I began blogging several years ago in search of new friends who, like me, were having a difficult time getting pregnant. Five years, 2 miscarriages, 4 failed IUI's, and a doctor who told us "It will never happen" later, we are the proud parents of Kade and Kohen. They are each an example of God's absolute perfection. We thank God where medical intervention stops, Divine intervention begins.

About Me

I am married to my best friend and strongest ally. We have our share of misfortune which makes us stronger; we are guilty of mistakes which keep us human; we count our blessings which keep us humble. We share a love that is rare, a life that is priceless, and two sons we were told would never be. We are a blessed family!

Resolution for Women

1. I do solemnly resolve to embrace my current season of life and maximize my time in it. I will resist the urge to hurry through or circumvent any a portion of my journey but will live with a spirit of contentment.

2. I will champion God's model for womanhood in the face of a post-feminist culture. I will teach it to my daughters and encourage its support by my sons.

3. I will accept and celebrate my uniqueness, and will esteem and encourage the distinctions I admire in others.

4. I will live as a woman answerable to God and faithfully committed to His Word.

5. I will seek to devote the best of myself, my time, and my talents to the primary roles the Lord has entrusted to me in this phase of my life.
